Correct Answer: $\frac{12}{13}$


Solution : Given: $5\cos\theta+12\sin\theta=13,\ 0^0<\theta<90^0$
Here, $5\cos\theta+12\sin\theta=13$
⇒ $(\frac{5}{13})\cos\theta+(\frac{12}{13})\sin\theta=1$
Comparing it with $\cos^2\theta+\sin^2\theta=1$ we get,
$\cos\theta=\frac{5}{13}$ and $\sin\theta=\frac{12}{13}$
Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{12}{13}$.
